Product details
More music, less outside noise. Two microphones in each ear cup and dual noise sensor technology capture the sounds in your environment. This allows you to block out ambient noise anywhere and focus entirely on your music. Smarter listening. The integrated V1 processor eliminates outside noise with its short processing delay, making noise cancelling more effective than ever. Even more natural ambient sounds. In Ambient Sound mode, the WH-CH720N headphones use their feedforward and feedback microphones to capture ambient sounds more accurately, allowing you to enjoy a natural listening experience while staying connected to your surroundings. Through the Sony Sound Connect app, you can adjust the ambient sounds across a spectrum of 20 levels. Alternatively, you can use the voice focus setting, so you can keep wearing your headphones during a conversation. Adaptive Sound Control automatically adjusts to your activity. The intelligent adaptive noise control detects where you are and what you are doing, adjusting the ambient sound settings for an ideal listening experience accordingly. It even recognizes places you frequent, such as your workplace, the gym, or your favorite café, and switches the sound mode based on the environment. Lightweight, wireless noise cancelling. The WH-CH720N headphones weigh only 192 g, making them our lightest wireless over-ear headphones with noise cancelling – ultra-comfortable without compromising on technology. More comfort, more music. The WH-CH720N headphones feature soft, oval ear cushions, allowing you to enjoy your favorite music without having to take the headphones off in between. Soft synthetic leather and urethane materials, combined with optimal ear cushion structure and size, ensure exceptional wearing comfort.

The ANC and wearing comfort of the Sony WH-CH720N are just as acceptable as the sound, even if they are not top class. The value for money is right and the product is suitable for everyday use, plays for 35 hours without recharging and is versatile - not just for listening to music...

- Very long runtime
- Buttons are a little wobbly
- No bag for transport
The Sony WH-C720N won by far in this price category. Among other things, it owes this to its pleasant sound. The sound improves even more when you carefully boost the treble in the Sony Headphones app. The WH-C720N inherited adjustable noise-cancelling from its more expensive brothers. However, it's not as effective as the Sony 1000. The battery life, on the other hand, is in the upper league.
